Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, personally delivered paperwork to the Texas secretary of state’s office this week and claimed in a video that the independent presidential candidate had gathered “far beyond the number of signatures” necessary to place him on the ballot.
“Thank you guys so much. This is so meaningful,” Shanahan said while seated inside a vehicle, waiting for Kennedy to arrive. “This is the path to democracy in this country.” She was holding a box that she said contained signatures gathered by volunteers on Kennedy’s behalf.
His presence on the ballot in November is not yet official, matching his status in several other states. As of last week, Kennedy was confirmed to appear on the ballot in Utah, Hawaii, Delaware, California, and Michigan, with six other states still pending.
